Baroness Mone admits lying about PPE links in car crash interview

The Baroness, appearing alongside husband Doug Barrowman, admitted lying to the press about links to a PPE firm awarded £200million in Government contracts during the pandemic.

Her car crash TV interview with the BBC's Laura Kuenssberg faced a furious backlash.

Former Tory MP Anna Soubry accused the lingerie tycoon of appearing on camera for sympathy having been "caught out lying and profiteering off taxpayers". Ms Soubry said Baroness Mone was now "playing the victim in a desperate attempt to rebuild her reputation".

One viewer, referring to the royal's Newsnight interview, said: "Michelle Mone showed about as much self-awareness as Prince Andrew."
